I am currently a senior at The Metropolitan High School. The Metropolitan High School is far from perfect, especially now that we have a new principal with no experience dealing with high school students. Although, we do have amazing staff who are not just our teachers but also our friends. New changes have caused our school to go down but with the help of everyone in that school, we can most definitely bring the school up.

My son transfered to The Metropolitan after getting involved with the wrong crowd at another school. The school worked with me to get him back on track and help him recover from his experiance. He is now an A student and talks all the time about how glad he is that he got a second chance.
